Use MUTEX_FSTRANS mutex type
There are regions in the ZFS code where it is desirable to be able
to be set PF_FSTRANS while a specific mutex is held. The ZFS code
could be updated to set/clear this flag in all the correct places,
but this is undesirable for a few reasons.
1) It would require changes to a significant amount of the ZFS
code. This would complicate applying patches from upstream.
2) It would be easy to accidentally miss a critical region in
the initial patch or to have an future change introduce a
new one.
Both of these concerns can be addressed by using a new mutex type
which is responsible for managing PF_FSTRANS, support for which was
added to the SPL in commit zfsonlinux/spl@9099312 - Merge branch
'kmem-rework'.
